DraftKings put out their Week 1 pricing on Friday, August 5th. The Millionaire Maker is $3 and has 1.96 million entrants, Sunday-only is now the main slate, and QB pricing has been elevated.

Here are my initial thoughts on a position-by-position basis:

Quarterback

DraftKings has elevated the average price of QBs -- for Week 1 at least. Whereas in 2015 there were 5.5 QBs per week priced at $7,000 or above, there are 11 on the Sunday-only slate alone. This will make it even more important to find cheap values at the other positions. (Learn how to find value at RB here, WR here, and TE here.)

Eli Manning ($7,500) is the QB19 on FanDuel's pricing, but the QB5 on DraftKings', so he's a QB who could be a good fade candidate on the site if you play on both.

I like Carson Palmer ($7,100) as the QB10 in pricing against the Patriots. Palmer finished 2015 ranked as the QB7 in PPG and is priced the same as Matt Ryan, who finished ranked as the QB26 in PPG. Barring setbacks from Julian Edelman and Dion Lewis, I don't think Patriots-Cardinals will necessarily be a defensive game. Remember, Matt Cassel kept the Patriots offense right on schedule the last time Tom Brady missed extended time. That also makes Jimmy Garoppolo ($6,200) an interesting GPP play as one of the cheapest QBs on the board. The game's current over/under is 48, the fourth-highest on the slate.

Wide Receiver

Julian Edelman ($6,100) comes with a huge injury (and QB?) discount if he's ready to go; the last time he was active in the regular season, his price was $8,200. Edelman being ready to go, however, is no sure thing. Reports out of camp about Edelman's health have been vague, and some injury experts think a Week 1 return from the type of foot injury he sustained is a bit aggressive. I haven't been drafting Edelman in MyFantasyLeague best ball drafts for this reason, but he'll be an interesting value pick if healthy. Edelman was the WR9 in PPG scoring last season.

Amari Cooper ($7,200) should be viewed as a WR1 against the Saints porous defense even if he gets shadowed by the talented but mistake-prone Delvin Breaux.

As I wrote in my early look at FanDuel Week 1 pricing, Marvin Jones ($4,600) could be a screaming value -- unless he gets shadowed by Vontae Davis, which is possible depending on how often Golden Tate lines up in the slot.

Tight End

Dwayne Allen ($3,200) looks like one of the biggest bargains on the slate. Allen is the TE20 on DraftKings, and remember, this isn't even a full slate. 4for4 has Allen ranked squarely inside the top-10 at the position, and the Lions are ranked as the bottom-five team in early aFPA versus TEs.

Julius Thomas ($3,800) is another TE 4for4 has ranked inside the top-10 that is very affordable, priced the same as or below TEs that 4for4 doesn't even have ranked in the top-15, like Jason Witten ($4,100), Eric Ebron ($3,900), and Jimmy Graham ($3,800).

Speaking of Witten, he tends to put up good numbers against the Giants, who always seem to be undermanned at linebacker and safety, as they could be again in 2016. Over the last three seasons, Witten has averaged 17.3 PPG in six games against the Giants, and 10.3 PPG in 42 games against everyone else.
